In this way, the three of them kept Mark as a tank, and Anna and Monica were the output of normal attacks.
They fought from night to day, all night long around the border of the poisonous fog swamp.
During this period, four fourth-level monsters parasitized by bone leeches and more than twenty third-level monsters were killed.
In order to maximize the effect of the vampire roses, every time they kill monsters, those monsters, including the parasitic leeches among them, will be completely sucked dry, without even any magic crystals left.
If the adventurers in Osborne knew how wasteful they were and how much gold they had wasted, they would probably want to eat the three of them alive.
But in fact, looking at the entire Osborne Town, how many people can kill so many third-level monsters in one night like Mark and his friends?
Not to mention those solo adventurers, even the three major adventure groups could not achieve the same efficiency as Mark and his two companions.
After all, how many adventure groups can achieve the perpetual motion state like the three of them? They don't need potions to replenish their blood. Killing a monster can instantly replenish it, and it can also bring with it increasingly stronger positive mutation states.
Magic power does not require potions. Among the three, only Mark, the meat shield, needs to continuously consume magic power.
His mana consumption is mainly to maintain the "Judgment of Eternal Nightmare". With the powerful attributes of the Forbidden Codex, his mana recovery speed can easily keep up with the consumption.
An adventure team as strong as theirs has the potential to become a top-tier adventure group even among the top-ranked adventurer towns!
But even after killing so many monsters, the three of them had no intention of stopping.
When the summer sun barely shone through the gray-green poisonous miasma and onto the crown of a large tree that had been infected by the poison and turned dark green, Mark and the other two were leaning against the barely dry roots of the tree and eating dry bread with clean water.
"Xiao Mu hasn't come to us yet, which proves that the black-robed people's ritual hasn't reached the final stage. We still have time. Mark, how many crystals do we have now?"
With her red hair flying, Monica turned to look at Mark.
Being looked at by Monica at this moment, Mark felt as if his heart was being seen through.
So cool, so beautiful!
This was the first word that popped into Mark's mind when he saw Monica's image at this moment.
Her original adventure leather armor and clothes were now covered with a layer of tightly fitting shadow power. It was a strange armor composed of countless fine and deep shadow scales.
The scales extended along the natural curves of her body, outlining an outline full of strength and agility, and glowed dimly in the thin light of the poisonous miasma.
What is even more eye-catching is the pair of gray-black wings behind her shoulder blades.
They are not made of flesh and blood, but are instead composed of pure shadow energy condensed into a solid skeletal framework.
The wings are jagged, graceful yet dangerous, covered in flowing, feathery energy that seems to have been cut from the night itself, with blurred edges that seem ready to merge into the surrounding shadows at any moment.
As for her hands, the original ten fingers extended into sharp, curved claws, the color of which was as deep as black jade.
And on her wrists, there grew two black, hideous barbs that curved upwards like daggers.
This is the most extreme mutation that can occur after Monica absorbs the abnormal holy water. Even if she continues to absorb the abnormal holy water, she will not produce any additional changes.
However, Monica also said that this was not the limit of her transformation. She could feel that as long as Mark's professional skills could be improved, her form would seem to become stronger.
"Hey! I asked you how many crystals you have now! What's so good about me that you have to keep staring at it?"
Monica's personality seemed to have become much more irritable as her body underwent positive changes. She retracted her nails in dissatisfaction and tapped Mark's forehead with her index finger.
"Oh, that's because you have changed so much! Now you have collected 3 crystals and 1 fragment." Mark replied, sensing his own condition.
While creating abnormal holy water for Monica and Anna, they also did not forget the passive effect of Mark's [Holy Light Protection■] skill.
[While the shield is active, teammates have a chance to obtain ■■ crystal fragments when they kill. Consuming 3 crystals can revive any target with mutation characteristics.]
When collecting the ■■ crystal fragments, Mark had already determined that every 3 crystal fragments could be synthesized into one ■■ crystal.
Four of these ten crystal fragments were exploded by the four fourth-level monsters.
From this point of view, the drop rate seems to be quite high, but I don’t know if this is because some people had better luck last night.
"That's good, let's keep going. By the time Anna is completely mutated, we should be able to get nine crystals." Monica nodded.
If Mark himself had not been unable to produce any mutations using the abnormal holy water, they would have originally been able to collect twelve ■■ crystals.
Each member of the three-person team gets one, plus Xiao Mu also gets one.
Now that Mark doesn't need it, they save some time.
In fact, it was precisely because of the resurrection ability in Mark's skills that Monica insisted on accompanying Mark to complete the task of destroying the ritual.
Monica is not someone who likes to die, but when she has the opportunity to fight for her companions' survival, she will never be a coward.
If Mark still cannot complete the so-called task of destroying the ritual after using all the ■■ crystals, she will knock Mark out and take him away from Osborne Town and the Warcraft Mountains.
As for why Mark was knocked unconscious?
Because Monica felt that Mark might be seduced away by the woman from the Black Gold Gang, she would never give her private experience baby to other women!
"What about the 'Nightmare Servant'?" Anna, who had put on her cloak again without knowing when, reminded him.
"Tsk." Mark smacked his lips helplessly, "Hey! They're all there!"
Following the direction of Mark's finger, Anna and Monica saw a turbulent churn in a muddy puddle not far away, and then three palm-sized light green fleshy worms crawled out.
There were three bone leeches. Although they were all at level four, they looked as if they had no fighting power at all.
"What a useless ability!" Monica couldn't help but sigh after identifying the abilities of the three bone leeches.
Her original plan was to fully utilize the potential of Mark's "Abnormal Holy Water", "■■ Crystal", and "Nightmare Servant" to destroy the black-robed man's formation as much as possible.
But the three bone leeches in front of him only had one skill - painless parasitism.
Since they can only inherit 20% of the original body's attributes, their six-dimensional attribute values are as low as those of first-level monsters.
Obviously, these three bone leeches will not play any significant role in this upcoming mission.
Monica didn't think that six guys who might be mid-level masters would be in the poisonous fog swamp without any preparation to deal with the bone leeches.
